Easy Choice, Right?

This is where America and Japan differ--not to mention about a billion other things.

America...bigger is better...more bang for your buck...something for nothing...fat people. I always chuckle as I push the button on the left and think of the poor sucker who can't do simple arithmetic, ratios, and/or see. Poor sap.

Japan...land of the rising sun and a few other things that are so strange and contadicting and peculiar that I may never know. Anyway, they may have it right on this vending machine. The capitalist inside me just puked...but yeah...if you don't want to drink the big one, why get it?

Assuming the fact that the light is not illuminated below the "big gulp" leads me to draw two conclusions:

1. You have often taken advantage of this price discrepancy.

2. Japanese people understand the price discrepancy and are sticking it to Coca Cola...

Cheers!
